Next year, I got to remember not to wait until the last week to get all the presents together! For the past couple of days I've been shopping and it's not fun when you're constantly trying to get around other people doing last minute shopping as well. I still have a little bit more to do but good thing I'm almost done!
So... anyone in the same position or did you get your Christmas shopping done early?

I actually got pretty much all of mine over with last weekend, with the exception of one friend, who I still haven't found something for, haha.

Ha, my family always waits until last minue. ALWAYS. I dunno, I kinda like it. Everywhere is so crowded and lively, it makes it feel more like the holidays are actually here. And then it's always fun to go shopping for a family memeber, and run into them at the store, which happened today.
And tonight my mom and dad decided to leave me and my brother home alone, so they could go shopping at nine o'clock, and they said they wouldn't be home until after 11. It's kinda weird.
And the lights on our Christmas tree are making the house so hot!!!

Yea, I was rather lucky this year. I got all of my shopping done the weekend after Thanksgiving. I only have one thing left to buy, for my sister Lisa. She is the most difficult person to shop for because she has everything already. I have to look tomorrow before work. I know I'm cutting it close, but I've no other choice since I don't want to just give her cash.

one thing i noticed about Christmas shopping... I cannot go with someone else. (Not if I want to get most of it done anyway) It's so distracting to have someone there with me for some reason.

My parents are out shopping again, leaving me and my brother home. They had us compile lists of what we wanted them to buy, which, I guess, makes everyone happy.
Happy Christmas eve, eve everyone!!!
